Official Description
This bill would require the report on anti-sexual harassment trainings at city agencies from Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) to provide the number of employees trained, related information about the employees trained, and information about the training. The bill would also require the report on workplace sexual harassment within city agencies to include information about the outcomes of substantiated sexual harassment complaints, the positions of the individuals bringing complaints, anonymized to protect all parties’ privacy. Finally, the bill would repeal Local Law 101 of 2018 relating to the climate surveys and action plans to combat sexual harassment and equal employment opportunity violations at city agencies; the bill would establish future requirements regarding climate surveys and action plans and related reporting requirements.
